Well, my XP installation crashed and I had to re-install everything. The version of RSView we have on CD is v3.10, but that version wouldn't import the .apa file I had created for reasons unknown.
So, perhaps I thought I'd upgrade, so after much searching I find a RSView32_6_40.zip over on rockwellautomation.com and figured that's what I needed.
Well, it's entirely different, and I wasn't very surprised by that, but it just seems TOO different. Firstly, the name is "Show Works", what? There's no application manager to download to the HMI and there's no archiver to even OPEN my previous project.
I am confused by the many, many different programs required to get anything done in the RSLogix world. When creating a RSLogix r16 project, will this "RSView Show Works" be the modern HMI tool, or did I miss something. What do you guys all have going on out there?
Thanks
